ATMORE, AL William C. Holman Correctional Facility View
William C. Holman Correctional Facility is a state prison in Atmore, Escambia County, Alabama. It is operated by the Alabama Department of Corrections, not the county sheriff. The facility is associated with high-security custody for adult male state inmates and generally holds people who have been sentenced to state prison rather than local pretrial detainees. Its role is to house inmates committed to state custody by Alabama courts, while local arrests, short-term detention, and most pretrial matters are typically handled by county jails.

How to Find an Inmate at William C. Holman Correctional Facility
To find someone held here, use the official inmate search link available on this page for the facility roster or Alabama Department of Corrections search. Inmate listings typically include the person’s name, identifying number, custody location, booking or admission date, offense information, and custody status. Records do not always appear immediately after arrival or transfer. Processing can take several hours, and information may be delayed while staff complete intake, classification, or record updates. If the person was just arrested in Escambia County, check the county jail first because pretrial detainees are usually listed through the local jail before any state transfer.
